Hi,
The Changelog on the latest 2.6.26 kernel in Sid has this:
* [x86]: Enable modular FB_UVESA. (closes: #473180)
and Sid now has v86d:
http://packages.debian.org/sid/v86d
Checking the .config file of linux-image-2.6.26-1-686:
...
CONFIG_CONNECTOR=m
...
CONFIG_FB_UVESA=m
...
It says right here that installing v86d and linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 and
booting with:
video=uvesafb:1024x768-32,mtrr:3,ywrap
in the cmdline should result in framebuffer usage on the reboot.
It ain't so. Nothing more than 80x25.
Has anybody tried the above?
Note that Spock's website:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/projects/uvesafb/
does not use 'm' but 'y' for both of the config entries.
Am I missing something, as usual?
Hugo
